8. Frequently Asked Questions
1) What devices can be programmed with the MSP-EZ430U
debugging interface?
The MSP-EZ430U debugging interface was designed to
communicate with devices over a Spy Bi-Wire interface. All
members of the MSP430F20xx family of microcontrollers have been
tested and are supported.
2) Does the eZ430-F2013 support fuse blow?
The MSP-EZ430U debugging interface lacks the JTAG security fuse
blow capability. To ensure firmware security on devices going to
production, the USB Flash Emulation Tool or the Gang Programmer,
which include the fuse blow feature are recommended.
3) What is the voltage supplied to the MSP-EZ430D target board
from the debugging interface?
The MSP-EZ430U debugging interface supplies a regulated 3.6V to
the MSP-EZ430D target board.
4) Can other programming tools interface to the MSP-EZ430D
target board?
The MSP-EZ430D target board will work with any programming tool
supporting the 2-wire Spy Bi-Wire interface. Both the MSP430 USB
FET and the Gang Programmer support these devices.
5) What versions of IAR Embedded Workbench are supported?
The eZ430-F2013 is supported by IAR Embedded Workbench 3.40A
and IAR Embedded Workbench (Kickstart Version) FET_R449 or
higher.
6) What are the part numbers for the connectors between the MSP-
EZ430U and the MSP-EZ430D target board?
